325 LASER ENGRAVING Laser engraving is a precise technique that utilises a focused laser beam to remove material and produce permanent and intricate markings on a variety of surfaces. The process vaporises material, generating high heat to incise designs. IN MOULD LABELLING In-mould labelling is a technique used in plastic container manufacturing, where a pre-printed label is positioned inside a mould before shaping the plastic container. During production, plastic material is heated, placed into the mould, and merges with the label to create a unified product. RELIEF MOULDING Relief moulding refers to the process of creating a raised design on materials. This is often achieved by using special dies to press the design into the material, resulting in a tactile, three- dimensional e�ect. SUBLIMATION Sublimation printing is a digital printing process that uses heat and pressure to transfer dye onto di�erent materials. It is commonly used to print on polyester fabrics, but can also be used on other materials such as ceramic, metal, and plastic. EMBROIDERY Embroidery involves the creation of patterns by stitching threads onto a fabric. 360 LASER ENGRAVING 360-degree laser engraving allows for precise engraving on more complex rounded products. 360 DIGITAL PRINT 360-degree digital printing enables full-colour printing on the entire surface of an object and is frequently employed for customising products. SCREENROUND Screenround utilises the same technique as screen print, except the product is turned and moved during the printing process. HOT STAMPING Hot stamping is a printing process that uses heat and pressure to apply foil between a die and the surface to be stamped.
